Traditional Chinese Medicine on the organs of the important theoretical – \”Viscera\” theory

by admin on Mar.06, 2010, under TCM Knowledge


Chinese medicine important organ within the human body is dirty and the internal organs are divided into two categories, the relevant organs of the theory known as “Tibet as” theory. Tibetan, Tong “dirty” means concealed within the internal organs; as it is sign or image. That is to say, although the internal organs stored in the body, but its physiological and pathological changes in, there are signs of performance out. Therefore, Chinese medicine theory organs, through observation of the external signs of the human body to study the laws of visceral activities and their relationship doctrine.

Dirty, and internal organs is based on different functions of internal organs and to distinguish the difference. Dirty, including the heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney five organs (five organs), mainly referring to the internal organization of substantial abdominal cavity of a number of organs, their common function is to store refined gas. Vitality is able to raise sufficient organs, life-sustaining activities, essential nutrients. Internal organs, including the gall bladder, stomach, large intestine, small intestine, bladder, triple burner six organs (Six Hollow Organs), most of them refers to the abdominal cavity with a number of hollow cavity of the organ, they have to digest food, absorb nutrients, excrete dross function. In addition, there are “Qi Heng of the internal organs,” refers to the internal organs, the physiological function different from general internal organs of a class of organs, including brain, marrow, bone, veins, women’s cell and so on. It should be noted that the medicine inside the viscera, in addition to refer to the real dirty anatomical organs, more importantly, on human physiological function and pathological changes in general. Therefore, although the name of modern medicine, where most of the organs of the same, but its concept, functional but not exactly the same, it is not to equate the two.

Chinese medicine believes that the human is an organic whole composed of five internal organs as the core of an extremely complex entity, it mainly five internal organs, with the Six Hollow Organs, to the meridian as a network, contact the body tissues and organs to form a five system. This is part of the medical system theory.

Between the human internal organs, not only have a link on the structure, but also in function is also closely linked and mutually coordinated. The completion of a physical activity, often a number of organs involved, an organ but also has a wide range of physical performance. Visceral link between the body’s internal organs such mutual physiological activity of the overall performance. Therefore, the lesions occur in internal organs, it also could affect each other.

At present, we discussed the most is the relationship between dirty and filthy, and dirty with the relationship between the internal organs.

[The relationship between dirty and dirty]

1. Heart and lungs: Heart main blood and lung the main gas. Functional activities of human tissues to maintain, is dependent on blood circulation to transport nutrients. Although the normal operation of the blood heart of the Lord, but it must be driven by means of lung, while the accumulation in the lungs of the cases of gas, it is necessary to Xinmaitong perfusion can be accessible body.

2. Heart and liver: the heart is the driving force for blood circulation, the liver is the storage of blood is an important organ, so strong efforts, thus filling hepatic blood storage, both tendons and nutrition, but also the promotion of human limbs, Bai Hai normal activities. If the effort deficiency, caused by insufficient hepatic blood that could lead to blood does not raise tendons, bones and muscles appear Ling pain, hand-foot-Ju Luan, convulsion embolism. Another example is liver depression-fire can be disturbing, and at heart, there upset insomnia embolism.

3. Heart and spleen: the spleen of the transportation and transformation of the refined, need to draw blood to run in order to lose distributed in the body. The effort must also depend on the spleen of the absorption and transfer the water generated by microscopic Valley. On the other hand, the heart the main blood, spleen and Manpower blood, spleen function properly, blood can be unifying. If the temper weakness can lead to blood does not follow through.

4. Heart and kidney: the kidneys, two dirty, interaction, mutual constraints, in order to maintain the relative balance of physiological functions. In physiological conditions, heart yang falling, Lu Yin rising up and down the intersection, yin and yang-phase Fiji, known as the “heart and kidney intersect.” In pathological conditions, if the kidney yin are not sufficient, the economy in mind, it will cause partial Kang Xin Yang, the two disorders, referred to as “the kidneys do not pay.”

5. Liver and spleen: LIVER blood, spleen Mizutani transport of microscopic blood born. Spleen effects, such as the formation of blood can lead to hepatic blood shortage, dizziness, vertigo, depending on the material the lack of clarity. Up to the evil of the liver hi depression, if the liver qi stagnation, spleen and tribulations guilty can be abdominal pain, diarrhea.

6. Liver and lung: liver fat and the passages of penetration in the lung on the note, the two have a certain connection qi l hair, lung Su-down related to the movements of the body of qi to run. If the liver qi Shang Ni, lung failure Gansu down, visible chest Chuancu. Anger Fan Fei, but also can be seen Xiongxie pain, cough or sputum on blood embolism.

7. Liver and kidney: kidney essence, liver blood, hepatic blood need to rely on the nourishment of kidney essence, kidney essence also need to continuously add the liver Min, the two are interdependent and mutually-owned health. Kidney essence inadequate, can lead to liver blood deficiency. On the contrary, hepatic blood deficiency, can also affect the formation of kidney essence. If the kidney yin insufficient nourishment of liver failure, can cause liver and inadequate, leading to partial liver-yang Kang or liver-wind syndrome within the immobile, such as vertigo, tinnitus, tremor, numbness, convulsions and so on.

8. Lung and spleen: spleen qi essence of water on the valley lost in the lung, and lung gas inhalation refined combination of gas were formed (or lung). The strength of lung and spleen of the transport of microscopic related, so temper-wang is filled lung. Spleen affected by the lungs, the visible eat less, idle words, then sugar, cough embolism. Used clinically, “Spleen Yifei” approach for treatment. Another example is patients suffering from chronic cough, phlegm thin white, easy to cough, body tired eat less embolism, although the lung Syndrome, while the disease lies in the spleen, we must use”Spleen dampness phlegm” approach, be effective. So-called “lungs of the device for the storage of sputum and spleen Shengtan the source”, which are embodied the relationship between the spleen and lung.

9l spleen and kidney: kidney-yang Piyang the temperature raised to rely on in order to play a role in transportation and transformation. Lack of kidney-yang will enable Piyang weak, transport-based disorders, Diarrhea dawn appeared, food grain is not of embolism. Conversely, if the Pi Yang virtual bad, can lead to kidney is less than, there waist Teng spent cold, edema.

10. Lung and kidney: lung primary Gansu drop, water passage, so that the water liquid attributed to kidney. Kidneys water liquid, the steaming through the kidney-yang, so clear in the clear, attributable to the lungs, rely on the transport of Pi Yang worked together to accomplish water metabolism functions. Lung, spleen, kidney three dirty, a dirty, dysfunctional, can cause the water to remain liquid-mei and edema. The main pulmonary respiration, kidney primary qi, two dirty synergistic to maintain physical access to air-lift capabilities.

[The relationship between internal organs and internal organs]

Six Hollow Organs are organs of conductive materials diet, they are both the division of labor also collaborate together to accomplish things in the receiving diet, digestion, absorption, conduction and discharge process. If the Shuxie gall bladder bile to help the stomach of food; the stomach is satisfied by the decomposition, digestion Mizutani; intestinal absorption of tolerance and distinguish turbid secretion; the large intestine to absorb moisture and conductivity dross; bladder storage and excretion of urine wrist; triple burner is water solution excretion of the main access lift and so on, the relationship between them is very close, one of bowel dysfunction, or lesions occur, are enough to affect the mass of food material, so that diarrhea Six Hollow Organs are not possession in order to pass for the use.

The relationship between the dirty and the internal organs

Dirty table and the internal organs are co-ordinated, one internal organs with a dirty, dirty is a yin for years, internal organs are yang as a table. Organs of the table is to contact the meridian, that is dirty by the context in the internal organs, internal organs through the vein in the dirty, interlinked with each other through the air with each other effect, so dirty and the internal organs in the lesion able to interact with each other on transfer.

The relationship between exterior and interior organs are: heart and small intestine relative to exterior and interior; liver and gall bladder relative to exterior and interior; spleen and stomach relative to exterior and interior; Lung and Large Intestine table; Kidney and bladder relative to exterior and interior; Pericardium and Triple Burner phase table.

1. Heart and small intestine: meridian interlinked and mutually exterior. Heart Sutra hot bickering erosion can occur. Painstakingly through the heat transfer in the small intestine, can and see a short red urine, urinary tract astringent pain embolism.

2. Liver and gall bladder: gall send in the liver, organs are linked, meridian interlinked to form exterior and interior. Bile from the liver, if the liver Shuxie disorders, will affect the normal excretion of bile. On the contrary, bile excretion disorders, will also affect the liver. Therefore, liver and gallbladder symptoms are often at the same time and see, such as jaundice, Xie Tong, mouth pain, dizziness and so on.

3. Spleen and Stomach: In the feature, the spleen hi dry wet evil, evil stomach Xi-run dry; l spleen, stomach the main drop. The physiological function, the stomach is the water of the sea valley, the main digestion; spleen and gastric line of their body fluid, the main transportation and transformation. The two-phase dampness economy, lifting coordination, stomach spleen of each other for the use of, constitute a unified sense of the contradictions in both the opposition movement, jointly accomplished Mizutani digestion, absorption and transfer the task.

Stomach following acts cis, Wei Qi, and down, then the water to downstream valley. Temper more acts of cis, temper rising above microscopic material was lost. If the Wei Qi is not decreasing, and Shang Ni, is it easy to reverse, vomiting embolism. Temperament did not rise, but subsidence, Yi is a long time to vent, prolapse of the uterus under the off embolism. As the spleen and stomach physically closely related to the pathological influence each other, so often the spleen and stomach, and on the provisional license, in the treatment of multiple spleen and stomach, and governance.

4. Lung and large intestine: meridian connected to each other exterior and interior. If the lung Su-down, then the air-to smooth the large intestine in order to play its conduction. On the contrary, if the large intestine to maintain its smooth transmission, then the lung in order to decrease the Qing Su. For example: lung quite stagnation, missing the Su-down of the power, may lead to the large intestine conduction block, which caused constipation. On the contrary, large intestine conduction block, can also cause lung Su-down disorders, shortness of breath, cough and asthma, etc. appear. Another example: in the treatment of excess heat on the lungs can be diarrhea the large intestine, so that heat discharged from the large intestine. On the contrary, the large intestine block, but also Nobumichi lung in order to facilitate the large intestine of the air-sparse.

5. Kidney and bladder: meridian interlinked and mutually exterior. In the physical one for the water dirty, and one for water, internal organs, common to maintain the balance of water metabolism (in kidney-based). Kidney-yang steaming, so that liquid water infiltration bladder, bladder also made use of kidney-yang role in the function of excretion through their own urine. In pathology, the kidney is less than, can affect the bladder weakened by the emergence frequency of urination, or enuresis; bladder damp heat, but also affect the kidneys and appears as back pain, hematuria and so on.

6. Pericardium and Triple Burner: meridian interlinked and mutually exterior. For example, the clinical fever in the hot and humid combined evil, missed triple burner, there chest tightness, body weight, oliguria would Tong, said the disease in the gas separation. If you failed to stop its development, warm Evils, it points into the camp from the air points, from the triple burner pericardial retraction, while the coma, delirium embolism.

The link between internal organs is very extensive. Between them, both the structure of the contact, more functional links. For example, the main function of the spleen is the main transportation and transformation, thinking that the body’s source of nutrition; but the transport of the spleen, in addition to the stomach as the main co-ordination, but also depend on the Shuxie qi, lung input cloth, effort of the nourishment of kidney-yang warmth, bile is also involved in the meantime. Visceral relationship between the activities of the overall composition of the human body, making a more harmonious and coordinated a variety of physiological functions, which for the maintenance of human life activity, maintaining a health significance.

The spleen and stomach is essential for life

The human body is from the organs, meridians, fur, muscles, bones and tendons, essence and blood body fluid composed of a whole.

Theory is to study the human body organs physiological functions and pathological changes of organs and their relationship doctrine.

Dirty, including the heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, known as the five internal organs. Also located in the heart of the periphery of pericardium, with venae, a commonly used blood of the pathways, and the role of the protection of the heart, hence referred to as dirty. Internal organs, including the gall bladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder and triple burner, known as the Six Hollow Organs.

Organs is a body fluid, chemical and biological essence and blood, promoting metabolism, the maintenance of body functions The main organs. , Respectively, the five internal organs are fine gas storage (refined gas, means the essence and blood body fluid), Six Hollow Organs is the main food, the assimilative, digestion, absorption, conduction and excretion. So dirty with possession of the main internal organs in order to pass for the use.

Between organs and whether it is dirty, dirty, internal organs and internal organs, or dirty with the internal organs are all interrelated. Five internal organs and “fifth body” and other organizations as well as “facial features”, “QiQiao” and other organs, also have close ties. The relationship between the five viscera and the five bodies are: Heart of the main vein, liver Zhu Jin, spleen governs the muscles and lungs to Skin, Kidneys bones. Five internal organs and the five palace is the relationship between QiQiao heart opens into the tongue, liver opens into the eyes, spleen opens into the mouth, lung opens into the nose, ears, and two kidney opens into Yin (the nose, head and ears and mouth as QiQiao have two, with a “pre-yin” and “post-yin,” Khieu 2, also known as Jiuqiao). Because the five internal organs and the five physical senses QiQiao associated, so changes in the five organs, often reflected in their respective organizations and the surface hole awakened.

TCM organs function and disease awareness of the historical conditions at that time due to the restrictions outlined a rough comparison. Internal organs in Chinese medicine where the concept is not only an autopsy, but more important is a physiological and pathological concept, and therefore Chinese medicine, where “organs” concept, with modern medicine, “organ” concept is different. For example: Chinese medicine where the “heart” is not equal to the heart of modern medicine, which in addition to anatomy of the heart on behalf of the outside is still physically in modern medicine, including circulatory and nervous systems of some organs function. We are studying Chinese medicine, it should be to the point of view of dialectical materialism, combined with modern medicine, to seize the substance of its analysis and research to weed camps, Quweicunzhen, in order to create a new unified medicine in China to contribute.

Yin: Triple Burner

The link between the internal organs and blood through the meridians of the focused, constitute an organic whole. In the physiological state, both the division of labor between them and co-operative, a complex physiological event. In the pathological state, but also affect one another. Therefore, the relationship between them can be obtained from physiological and pathological changes reflect this. To master the theory of the relationship between these organs, the clinical syndrome differentiation, there is a certain significance.
